'Now that I think of it… all girls around me are special in their own way.'

'Aushima being an obedient and lovey-dovey type.

Rose with her secret M-side.

Wait, better to call her a little pervert.

Jasmine with her over-possessive and competitive side.

Also, there's a mature and vibrant Parul with whom I think half of the progress is already done.'

As someone who was destined to be part of the protagonist's future harem, each of them had their unique talents.

The approaching footsteps of the guards on patrol pulled me back to reality.

With my much higher perceiving senses, I could hear the general content of their discussions.

"Hey, I think I heard someone screaming and shouting for help from this direction."- a random guard.

"Yeah, you are right..this area is much hidden and abandoned making it a perfect place to commit a crime. I am pretty sure some shady things must be going here, let's catch all the criminals" -the second random guard.

I was about to burn the bodies using my fire magic, but I stopped in the middle of my casting.

If I burned them there was bound to be more trouble as I was not sure if I could make their remaining bones disappear in such a short time.

I calculated, we roughly had like twenty seconds to run away before the guards saw us.

I looked at Jasmine.

"We need to run!"

She was taken aback,

"Didn't we kill all of them?"

"What's there to be scared of?"

She looked me directly in the eyes.

I could already see her misty eyes overflowing with tenderness and love while looking at me.

I knew that right now all she wanted was..to jump in my arms and feel the warmth of being loved and embraced.

Even I planned to do that because every girl would need comfort after undergoing the amount of suffering that she went through.

Moreover, I was more frustrated than her!

I did so much hard work and when it was time to reap rewards those damn guards disturbed us.

'Can't you have disturbed us after some minutes, at least we would have kissed by then?'

"Sorry it's the city guards on night patrol, we must not be the focus of any unwanted attention, it's hardly a day since we arrived in this city."

Without giving her a chance to think, I directly grabbed her hand and pulled her towards me.

She got confused at my action and tried to resist but how could her weak body be a match for my strong grasp?

I bent down on my knees,

"Get on my back, given your condition you can hardly walk."

"I will carry you!"

There was a tinge of blush on her face.

"Noo, it will feel so childish!"

"Am I some 5-year-old child who you can carry on your back?"

I gave her a stern gaze.

"Be obedient!"

Seeing my serious eyes she stomped her foot in embarrassment!"

"Okay, only this time!"

She was wasting too much time.

As a result, the guards saw us!

"Hey, you two over there!"

"Stop!"

When they saw the dead bodies lying on the ground they instantly became vigilant and started running towards us!

I knew the time was tight so I quickly helped Jasmine straddle on my back and started running away.

Even though she was in a half-awake state she could still hear lots of people screaming for us to stop behind our backs.

For the first time, she felt the thrill of running away, she even had the free time to look behind with a teasing face.

"This is awesome!"-she exclaimed.

Thankfully, it was quite dark at night so the guards were not able to see through our appearances.

The shouting behind our backs got even more severe.

"If you don't stop, we will use magic spells against you!"

"Don't blame us for your injuries!"

We quickly returned to the area near the restaurant we ate before.

How could ordinary patrolling guards be a match for me?

Before they could even use some magic to stop us, I had already left them far behind.

Along the way, I could feel Jasmine tightening her grip around me.

She could hear my strong heartbeat and found a never-found peace in it.

She thought silently, 'Is this the feeling one feels as mentioned in the books when a girl finds her safe-haven?'

She could smell my strong masculine smell and closed her eyes as she slowly started rubbing her nose behind my back letting herself get intoxicated by the feeling.

It was as if she wanted to drench herself in my smell,

like she wanted to mark herself..that she belonged to me!

She tried to further tighten her hands over me as if wanted to integrate her body into me.

I found her rather cute at the moment but my mind was occupied with solving the situation.

I took some sharp turns as we entered a rather shabby alley.

We were now near the main street and could hear some people occasionally laughing around the restaurant while drinking.

The guards were not able to keep up and lost us but I knew they wouldn't give up so easily!

They must have found those two dead bodies of the middle-aged men by now and would soon start an area-wide search for us.

I patted Jasmine's buttocks who was engrossed in hugging me from the back.

"Time to get off dear!"

She was so lost that she didn't realise that we had already stopped running.

I could hear her muttering to herself,

"Hehe!"

"Yes, I can also hug you better than Aushima!"

Upon hearing her, there were some question marks on my face.

Seeing her lost in her little fantasy, I reluctantly put her down.

She realised what happened and tried to hide her face using her small hands.

But before she could do it, we heard some patrolling guards coming toward us.

I was surprised at their speed to lock and search the entire area.

Jasmine looked at me with her big eyes not knowing what I would do!
